Boring Weekend Recap

source Monday, we meet again.  You come on like lightning you saucy wench.  I hope you all had a great weekend and managed to keep cool.  We got up to 96 at different times so that's...fun.     I have to start with these two cards I got in the mail Thursday night. The big paper one is from the friends we gifted our old grill to.  The Mr and I cracked up at the hot dog 'thanks' on what is an exact image of the grill along with a lovely note from the Mrs of the couple thanking us profusely as they didn't have money to replace their grill that was falling apart.  The other is from my friend I've known since 1988 and he doesn't send out cards much so this was a surprise.  It was him telling us how lucky he is to have us a friends and how much we mean to him and he thought we should know.  It made me cry for sure (and then of course check in to make sure he was okay.  He is.)  Obviously any kind of communication is appreciated but t...

Last What I'm Reading This Week of the summer

I've got no good segue so let's just get to...

10 Things You Should Never Touch on a Plane  (I never touch any of these until after I've Clorox wiped every one of them.  Except the carry ons, I didn't think of that so Lysol to go in the 1 oz pump spray is now on the list!)

Which San Francisco Neighborhood Are You?  (So glad I got Pac Heights which is the area we stay in when we go!  The Mr got Sunset which makes sense too.)

We're road trippin' this weekend.  I'm hoping perhaps we'll be going to find some leaf color change because it ain't happenin' in my neck of the woods yet and hello, Fall is Wednesday!  In case I haven't said it 20x this week...I'm ready!

What are y'all doing this weekend?
